"The Bible does a really good job of explaining modern day appreciation of science to people who lived thousand of years ago"

Most creation myths do that.

I stumbled across this by accident this morning; it showed up on a youtube presentation I was watching. The phrase "philosophical mental masturbation" has a rather nice ring to it, doncha think? It certainly describes ex-spurts like Jordan Peterson and Michael Crichton.

Last month a channel named "Formscapes" released a profoundly idiotic video about how all of science is "dogma" from an "elite priesthood", and we should instead listen to frauds who push demonstrably false pseudoscience because it makes him feel smart and special. He also tried to mock my debunk of Electric Universe for being similarly "dogmatic", though he was totally incapable of explaining how, as he could not engage with a single scientific point I had made in the entire video. Since this anti-science mentality, which regards the entire body of scientific knowledge as corrupt and dogmatic, is so shockingly prevalent, let's take Formscapes to school and explain to him how science actually works, shall we?
